I mourn the lost of
Cho Seung-hui,the shooter at the Virginia tech college.
Call me psycho but I've been upset since I found out the story.....
"I didn’t have to do this. I could have left. I could have fled. But no, I will no longer run. It’s not for me. For my children, for my brothers and sisters that you fuck, I did it for them… When the time came, I did it. I had to." -Cho in one of the videos
This is why I started this blog. For those who feel like I do. I know the pain he felt. How many of the students in VT died happy? Well Cho didn't. He died miserable and hurting. I do agree that shooting wasn't a good way to cure that loneliness butwhen it builds, it can go bad as you all saw.In middle school and high school, Cho was picked on for his shyness and odd speech. In English class at Westfield High School, he didn't speak when it was his turn to Cho didn't speak when picked by the teacher in class. When a teacher told him he'd get a failing grade for not participating, Cho began reading in a weird, deep voice that sounded "like he had something in his mouth," one classmate said. "The whole class started laughing and pointing and saying, ‘Go back to China,’" . Another classmate said that "There were just some people who were really mean to him and they would push him down and laugh at him," and "He didn't speak English really well and they would really make fun of him." Hm can you blame him after being picked on so many years?
"You have vandalized my heart, raped my soul and torched my conscience. You
thought it was one pathetic boy’s life you were extinguishing. Thanks to you, I
die like Jesus Christ, to inspire generations of the weak and the defenseless
people.
Do you know what it feels to be spit on your face and to have trash
shoved down your throat? Do you know what it feels like to dig your own grave?
Do you know what it feels like to have throat slashed from ear to ear? Do you
know what it feels like to be torched alive? Do you know what it feels like to
be humiliated and be impaled upon on a cross? And left to bleed to death for
your amusement? You have never felt a single ounce of pain your whole life. Did
you want to inject as much misery in our lives as you can just because you can?
You had everything you wanted. Your Mercedes wasn’t enough, you brats. Your
golden necklaces weren’t enough, you snobs. Your trust fund wasn’t enough. Your
vodka and Cognac weren’t enough. All your debaucheries weren’t enough. Those
weren’t enough to fulfill your hedonistic needs. You had everything.
"This
is it. This is where it all ends. End of the road. What a life it was. Some
life"-Cho in another video
What you are reading is not anger so much as hurt and pain. Think of it from a different perspective: What kind of hurt it took for a person to do this? He even said it himself.
Why hold such contempt for a man who was hurting? I will forever remember Cho, the man who was being eaten away by the festering lonliness inside and let it get the best of him, doing what we others wouldn't dare.
